Brighton loanee Valentin Barco and his fiancee have suffered a burglary at their home.
Last week, Jaureguy shared a video on Instagram capturing the moment Barco proposed, getting down on one knee after a whirlwind romance. However, the couple's joyful celebrations were cut short when they returned from a romantic dinner to find their home had been ransacked.

“The strange thing is only an employee knew our movements and the only possible entry point and he left seven minutes before the intruders entered. We’ve already reported the break-in to police and hope it gets resolved.”
The incident occurred at their new home in Seville, where Barco is playing for Sevilla on loan from Brighton during the 2024/25 season. The 20-year-old joined the Premier League club in January on a four-and-a-half-year deal but was sent on loan to the La Liga side to gain experience.

Despite making his debut for Argentina's senior national team in a friendly against El Salvador in March, Barco has struggled to make a significant impact during his time at Sevilla.
